Imagination Creates Reality
Your own wonderful human imagination is the actual creative power of
God within you. It is your savior. If you were thirsty, water would be your
savior. If you needed a job, employment would be your savior. Your imagi-
nation is the power to save you from whatever circumstances you now
find yourself. You can experience your heart’s desire through the use of
your imagination. Nothing is impossible to your imagination. Your imagi-
nation is unlimited in what it can accomplish. If you can imagine some-
thing, you can achieve it.
Let me give you an example. If you were unable to walk and were con-
fined to a wheelchair, you could close your eyes and imagine yourself run-
ning on the beach or wading in the water. If you would imagine yourself
doing this until it took on the tones of reality, you could accomplish a
healing that would allow you to actually walk or run.
The way to use your imagination creatively is this. Relax in a chair or on
a bed and close your eyes. First determine what it is you wish to experi-
ence. Then, in this state of complete relaxation, bring to mind the end re-
sult of what it is you desire. In other words, if you were seeking a promo-
tion at work, the end result might be that people would congratulate you
on your promotion. You might move to a larger office. You would enjoy
an increase in pay. Take any one of these events and, with your eyes
closed, actually hear your friends congratulate you on your promotion.
Feel their hand in yours as they tell you how happy they are for you.
By actually feeling that you are being congratulated, your imagination will
go to work to bring about that state in your outer world. You need not be
concerned about how this will be accomplished. Your imagination will use
whatever natural means are necessary to bring it about. “I am the begin-
ning and the end.” “My ways are past finding out.” What you do in imagi-
nation is an instantaneous creative act. However, in this three dimensional
world, events appear in a time sequence. Therefore, it may take a short
interval of time to realize in the outer world what you have just experi-
enced in imagination. After you have performed this act in your imagina-
tion, open your eyes and go about your normal, natural affairs, confident
that what you have done must come to fruition in your world. Make your
inner conversations conform to your imaginal act. You have planted a
seed and you will soon see the harvest of that which you have sowed.
When you go into your imagination, make sure that you are actually per-
forming the action, hearing the words, touching the object, or smelling
the aroma in your self conceived drama. What you do in your imagination
is not merely a daydream in which you see events in your mind’s eye. You
must enter the dream as if you were actually there. You must make
“then” now and make “there” here. To make this perfectly clear, imagine
